Rare Tahitianbigkahuna Posted April 2, 2017 Author #26 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) A touching moment between one of the dancers from the troupe 'Kids of Huahine' and a Paul Gauguin cruiser. The dancer is gently placing a head piece on the cruisers head. It's an honor to be chosen to receive this personal gift ... giving honor to elders is still very much alive in French Polynesia. The troupe usually performs on-board late in the afternoon while the Paul Gauguin in visiting the island of Huahine.

Emdee Posted April 13, 2017 #35 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Notice the scratch marks on the sides of the ship? The marks are of passengers not wanting to leave our wonderful crew and ship! Motu Islander is one of the biggest culprits. I just pat the side gently and say see you later, alligator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tahitianbigkahuna Posted April 13, 2017 Author #36 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Motu Islander is one of the biggest culprits.I just pat the side gently and say see you later, alligator. Alligators are typically freshwater ... Crocodiles are better for saltwater and like the warmer weather ..... so .......... 'I just pat the side gently and say see you later, crocodile.' I usually just say, "miss you girl" ........ ships are always girls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tahitianbigkahuna Posted May 3, 2017 Author #42 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Get your motors running ladies .... The Marquesas Warriors doing their thing at the Intercontinental Tahiti. Another great reason to book the IC Tahiti if your coming in a day or 2 early before your cruise. The IC Tahiti puts on one of the best shows at any resort in French Polynesia.

In 2011 i saw you with my own eyes...hanging on, hanging on, hanging on ...this was after you were evicted from your reserved seat by the pool bar. Well only a couple of months before you can occupy that seat again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
